On the fourth day of the show, Kodak's Graphic Communications Group (GCG) concluded a hugely successful event, taking many orders, delivering numerous demonstrations, logging in a lot of qualified leads, and exceeding the company's aggressive goals at China Print 2009.

On the site, Kodak's digital solutions draw great interests of the visitors: Glossing, fifth color option, and software and substrate flexibility make NEXPRESS Presses ideal for applications requiring outstanding quality; With the reliability, productivity, cost of ownership, and quality of offset, the STREAM PRINTHEAD adds variable data to inline production without the need for additional offline laser printing; The latest expansion of the KODAK VERSAMARK V-Series Printing Systems portfolio brings higher resolution to Kodak's inkjet line and provides an affordable solution for the mid volume range of bill and statement producers; The KODAK GENERATION NEWS System provides both the superior quality of thermal imaging and throughput speeds of up to 300 plates per hour...

Kodak's strategy of placing workflow at the hub and showing conventional and digital solutions within this blended production environment resonated with visitors. We showed how customers can expand their capabilities and profits. With our digital technology, we have collected a lot of sales leads taken at the show filling the funnel. Without exception, every region, segment and product line exceeded Kodak's expectations.

Make it brilliant, make it Kodak!

Kodak's digital printing technologies have become the must-see of China Print 2009 both for the visitors, as well as the must-report of the media.

The only national-wide TV network, CCTV reported Kodak Nexpress S3000 digital color variable data printing press in the program DiYi ShiJian (Morning Express) on Channel 2, focusing on the environmental characteristics and dimensional printing technology. The visitor also gathered at Kodak's booth, especially around the Nexpress S3000. The high impact of the 3D textures of the orange win the acknowledgments of the industry professionals.



The Stream Printhead from Kodak is also the big-bang of the show. The Stream Printhead, with flexible mounting options, integrates seamlessly with web offset presses, web finishing lines and a variety of third party printing towers to add variable data to offset printed materials at 1,000 fpm (305 mpm) with a resolution of 600 dpi. The high quality and VDP printing technology of the Stream Printhead transformed the traditional impression on digital printing of the visitors.



We also take part in the events outside of Kodak's Booth. On the manroland booth, Kodak GENERATION NEWS computer-to-plate system is the focus on the site, and Kodak's technical engineer operates the equipment on-site for the visitors. Today, the 2 important players in the graphic arts industry also jointly held the Newspaper VIP seminar, focusing on the strategies and trends in the newspaper industry, and related solutions.
